Art Chester's "Special #1" was built in Chicago in the early 30's. It was named after a character from the popular Popeye comics. In 1935, at the All-American Races in Miami, Art Chester broke the world's 100-km light plane record with a speed of 237 mph.

The Mountain Models micro scale R/C model kit of the Jeep is a docile, easy flying plane that's easy to build, but still has some style to it. For those wanting more performance, crank up the throttle and have an indoor pylon race!

The Mountain Models Jeep is perfect for indoor flying venues or for outdoor flying on those calm summer evenings.

The Jeep is built from laser cut contest grade balsa and plywood, with all hardware you need to complete the kit. The guts from a ParkZone P-51 or Sukhoi drop right into the Jeep, or you can buy the parts separately.
